Forefoot Pads Honeycomb Fabric Metatarsal Cushions Ball of Foot Cushion Pads for Women, 5 Colors (5 Pairs)

Product Information

Each of your feet has five metatarsal bones, and the forward ends of these bones form the “ball” of your foot. Proper support of these bones can relieve and prevent forefoot pain. Sharp, burning or shooting pain near your toes (ball of your foot), feels like a lump or small stone under your foot

The best metatarsal pads are ones that attach to your insole, rather than your foot, and are easily adjustable. You may need to adjust the met pad a few times to figure out the right spot for it, so velcro is better than adhesive. Modifications and adjustments are part of the game when dealing with met pads, and sometimes you need to rip them off and try something different for the best fit," says Ryan Robinson, CPed and former president of the Pedorthic Association of Canada.

Putting the pad under the top cover of the insole protects it from the foot. The anti-microbial nature of the top cover keeps the met pads from becoming havens for dirt and bacteria. Boots Ball of Foot Pads help to reduce pressure and friction on the ball of foot. Increased pressure, which occurs during standing, walking and running, may result in callussed, painful areas. By padding the area, the pressure is redistributed more evenly across the feet, helping to relieve any discomfort.

If you're bothered by pain in the balls of your feet, chances are you're suffering from one of a variety of ailments related to your metatarsal bones. If you have diabetes, or problems with your circulation, ask your doctor or chiropodist before using this product As you put your shoes on each day, you will not peel the met pad from the insole. It is protected, below the top of the insole.
